Sen. Clinton sure sounds confident in her ability predict the outcome of this election. So confident, in fact, that she's already anticipating the outcome of elections in other countries.

In a classic evolutionary study, it was shown that, through natural selection, the peppered moth was able to adapt to new environmental variables resulting from the industrial revolution. As buildings became dirtier with coal soot, darker-colored moths better camouflaged themselves agaist surfaces, and thus passed on their genes more frequently. This species, sensitive to ecological variation, has been able to quickly adapt to human-induced environmental change.

Unfortunately, some of the slowest adapting organisms on this planet are trees, and many of our most ecologically-sensitive policies may be assisting in their eradication. There's more...

We've all seen the "He's Not My President" bumper stickers, t-shirts, and paraphernalia. While I appreciate a good anti-Bush sticker as much as the next person, I take umbrage at this particular message, because I think it represents the larger, more dangerous problem between this nation and it's government.

What with today's vote in the House pushing us ever so much closer to a complete, bona fide facist regime, I figured I'd brush up on life under a dictatorship. Wikipedia offers a concise page on the Nazi Germany, so I hit it up for a few pointers. The similarities in the Pre-war Politics section are pretty striking concerning Hitler's rise to power ("squaring the Industrial magnates," aristocrats, religious and military leaders, etc). I'm sure it's no news to kossacks that Bush and Hitler's regimes are dramatically analogous, but in my cursory research, I figured I'd try and pin down whereabouts we are right now.

Republican hopeless wretch Jim Coburn has been running an ad attacking Democratic incumbent and all-around nice guy Gov. John Lynch on not doing enough to combat high gas prices in this state. Anyone who has done any interstate driving in the northeast recently would probably get a good chuckle out of this, and quick check of average gas prices* in New England reveals how ridiculous this complaint really is:

New Hampshire: $2.508/gal
Maine: $2.528/gal
Massachusetts: $2.546/gal
Rhode Island: $2.643/gal
Vermont: $2.676/gal
Connecticut: $2.750/gal
